Report

Thanks to you, we managed to prepare for the season before the last snow melted, and our dogs were immediately under reliable protection. You helped us purchase tick prevention medications.

Ticks are not just a summer nuisance. They are carriers of piroplasmosis, which destroys blood in a matter of days, as well as anaplasmosis and Lyme disease. Timely prevention is the only way to give our dogs long and healthy lives. Thanks to you, we were able to acquire long-acting medications before the peak of parasite activity began.

By saving the dogs, you also saved people! With your help, you protected not only the furry residents of the shelter, but also our staff, volunteers, and future owners who care for the animals every day. Every one of your donations turned into protection for the dogs and peace of mind for the people around them. Thank you for closing this vital fundraising campaign!

About the campaign

Dogs in shelters need tick prevention treatments

Protecting dogs from ticks is a vital part of looking after your pet’s health and preventing serious illnesses in both animals and people: shelter staff, volunteers and visitors. Ticks carry a range of diseases, including piroplasmosis, anaplasmosis and Lyme disease. Therefore, timely prevention is key to ensuring a long and healthy life for the dog and the safety of visitors and staff.

The tick season for dogs begins in early spring. Ticks emerge from hibernation as soon as temperatures consistently rise above freezing and small patches of bare ground appear. Activity peaks in April and May. Until late autumn, the organisation bears the enormous cost of treatment. But this is far cheaper and safer than treating pets for serious illnesses.

Please help us ensure the safety of our dogs and the people who care for them. Even a small donation can save lives!
